Environment and Ethos
What is Ethos?
Ethos is the values and beliefs as well as any positive policies ie. anti-bullying, sunsmart a school community contains. School ethos ensures all school members; teachers, students, other staff and community members are working together toward a common goal. Goals are generally beneficial to the school as a community and it's individuals. Ethos gives schools a sense of self as a whole community.

I am looking for a more detailed map then the one provided in class although not successful as of yet. I can then work with the even coordinator to decide on the best placement for each activity pending school approval.
To enhance school ethos we need to:
- Incorporate the schools ethos into our Healthy Activity Day
- Enable school to elaborate on our activities after the day to increase knowledge of school community
- Work with school staff, community members and health educators
In terms of environment we can:
- Remove potential hazards from planned activity area
- Plan activities away from dangerous areas, if any.
- Highlight boundary areas for students
- Include principles of play such as; rules, fair play, positive feedback
